Re: Lettering guy needed

The family business is signage for over 60 years. My uncle was a respected sign painter for his silver and gold leaf skills. Have and do known a few "brothers of the brush" in my 30 years. Spent many hours of my childhood watching my uncle letter as well as some of his contemporaries. Have held a brush but am more comfortable with nuts and bolts. Am good with computer graphics but not a designer.
ALL those and a few more like "Mr. J" from here in Paterson, NJ; DJ from Garfield, NJ; Bert from Oakland, NJ would do a great job. Keep in mind some are better businessmen than others, they are artists.
THE most important thing is spend some time looking through their portfolios to understand each artist's style. The best work will flow from "their" style. When style coalesces with your vision, develop a sketch and negotiate a deal.
Best of Luck! See you soon!
